There was a thread with a picture of TSX with gold emblems. The back looked ok but the front grill looked ugly. Only the "A" was gold and rest were chrome. Yuk! The guy who posted the picture said the body shop ran out of chrome badges so they put gold ones on.

My mother just bought a PWP and she's putting gold emblems on. I'll try to get some pics. She's more about the luxury side of the "sport/luxury" thing and thought they would look more sophisticated. She's getting the gold wheel cap emblems, too.

A baller would be a street basketball player, but its come to represent the urban lifestyle I guess. A balla would be my slang spelling. CT is pretty tame huh?

I have all Gold Emblems on my CG TSX and have gotten a lot of favorable comments. Goes well with the color. But I also can't stand non-functional ugly rear spoilers! Whatever turns your crank!!!

hey budzzz, did you also make the silver front part around the front acura emblem gold too? only had to ask, cause if it was just the emblems and not the chrome area surrounding the front acura emblem too, it doesn't look nice.

(NJ) Park Ave Acura Dealers actually install them on their sample cars.
It looks horrible if the color's dark, but doesn't look bad when it's on gray or white, but I still prefer silver emblems.

for the TSX, theres chrome everywhere, the front, door handles, the door trim. So why would you want 3 pieces of gold on the back? Prob the same reasons someone might want some ugly ass 25" chrome bling bling spinner rims too.
